2023 Canada $5 MAPLE LEAF 1 Oz Silver NGC MS70 First Day of Issue RARE
NGC MS70 First Day of Issue. " RARE " is the most overused word in the numismatic vernacular today. That's why I rarely use it, until it is richly deserved. This is one of those times!
The NGC Population for this coin is a remarkable 168! The Royal Canadian Mint has struck some wonderful coins over the years, but for some reason the Maple Leaf bullion strikes have never graded well compared to other bullion coins of the world, including American Silver Eagles.
I think in the last 3 or 4 years it has something to do with the security pattern struck into the coin to prevent counterfeiting. Compare this to the number of MS69's graded by NGC for 2023 which is 2,250 and you'll see a very small number actually made the cut!
Thanks for taking a look. It has been my pleasure to do so for 26 years. If you have a minute, please check out my feedback from buyers like you. It's the best advertisement I've got, and I'm pretty proud of it. Minted by The Royal Canadian Mint. Graded by NGC a perfect MS70 with the First Day of Issue pedigree.With a one day turnaround! If you're not happy, I'm not happy! If you wish to return coin, please notify me within the first week of receipt. "When Only The BEST Will Do".
